We talked yesterday in confirmation about how the bible relates to prayer and how we read the bible and how much time we devote to it. It got me to thinking about how much better our scripture reading could be if we treated every time we read the bible as a prayer.
First, i think we would treat it as talking to God and letting his word speak through us. Second, we would be less inclined to rush through it. Third, I believe we would be able to focus more easily. I know some of us, including me, have a daily bible reading and I occasionally rush through it and don't give it the time it deserves. I am going to be better about seeing it for what it is: the inspired word of God. I know that will help me in getting more from it and giving it my undivided attention daily.
